XXV. Military in President's Cabinet and related

Please remember, a Whack-O Theory is not based on any fact!

There is a danger if an federal Administration places a professional soldier (retired or active) in a position in the President's Cabinet.

He or she still has connections in the military; and should the President find he could use military personnel to achieve some purpose of his, he might just call on his buddy with military connections to help him out.

Let's take an example.  Suppose, due to budget constraints, a President can't process the number of deportees he's slated to send away--say to Mexico,  But then he thinks, "Ah, the military."  Somehow he adjudges he can get military assistance to speed up the process.  That will mean he can seize more land or other property left behind by the departed illegal immigrants, simply because they're being deported from the US at a faster clip.  Now, who could righteously complain about the improved rate of their being let go?

Be it known that President Trump has more than one member of his Cabinet with many years of professional experience in the military.
